In my youth, some 1000 years ago next week, I got the message from growing up in church. Evangelism is the job of the pastor. He is the only one trained enough, skilled enough to explain the message of:
We in Trouble.
Christ is Solution.
REPENT, Trust Christ's (pick one: Redemption, Atonement, Sacrifice, Salvation).
Well, if you find the above 10 words too daunting, there is an APP that I highly recommend available here:
https://www.cru.org/us/en/digitalministry/apps-tools/godtools.html
This gives you the option of putting the essence of the gospel on your own cell phone. It even offers you training on sharing the gospel. It has two gospel options plus a follow-up tool helping new converts, and old to grow. It has a couple of tools to start conversations just by presenting questions to others, and one uses emojis to express responses.
This little app enables you to gain the SAME qualifications as your Pastor (well, not all of those quals, but the basics of sharing your faith).
People all around you are eternal beings (See Lk 16:19-31). Many of them are headed straight for hell. They may not know it, but the "bridge is out" on their current "Highway to Hell". Yes, they may be "too busy", or "Not interested", or too sophisticated, but nonetheless, the bridge is still out. And no, you don't ever HAVE to tell anyone that the bridge is indeed out...but that seems SAD. Don't you think they at least need to know. And they CAN KNOW if you will simply tell them.
Just have them take a look at your cell phone. You can even share the pages to THEIR cell phones.
Check it out.
